Some Bidding related Information for this Tender (Sealed Bid)

The entire bid-submission would be online on ETS (unless specified for Offline
Submissions). Broad outline of submissions are as follows:
Submission of Bid-Parts/ Envelopes
Single-Part
Submission of information pertaining Bid Security/ Earnest Money Deposit (EMD)
Submission of digitally signed copy of Tender Documents/ Addendum
Submission of General Terms and Conditions (with/ without deviations)

Special Note on Security and Transparency of Bids
Security related functionality has been rigorously implemented in ETS in a

multidimensional manner. Starting with 'Acceptance of Registration by the Service
Provider', provision for security has been made at various stages in Electronic Tender's
software. Specifically for Bid Submission, some security related aspects are outlined
below:
As part of the Electronic Encrypter™ functionality, the contents of both the ‘Electronic
Forms’ and the ‘Main-Bid’ are securely encrypted using a Pass-Phrase created by the
Bidder himself. Unlike a ‘password’, a Pass-Phrase can be a multi-word sentence with
spaces between words (e.g. I love this World). A Pass-Phrase is easier to remember,
and more difficult to break. It is recommended that a separate Pass-Phrase be created
for each Bid-Part. This method of bid-encryption does not have the security and data-
integrity related vulnerabilities which are inherent in e-tendering systems which use
Public-Key of the specified officer of a Buyer organization for bid-encryption. Bid-
encryption in ETS is such that the Bids cannot be decrypted before the Public Online
Tender Opening Event (TOE), even if there is connivance between the concerned
tender-opening officers of the Buyer organization and the personnel of e-tendering
service provider.
CAUTION: All bidders must fill Electronic Forms™ for each bid-part sincerely and
carefully, and avoid any discrepancy between information given in the Electronic
Forms™ and the corresponding Main-Bid. For transparency, the information
submitted by a bidder in the Electronic Forms™ is made available to other bidders
Page 18 of 50
during the Online Public TOE. If it is found during the Online Public TOE that a bidder
has not filled in the complete information in the Electronic Forms™, the TOE officer
may make available for downloading the corresponding Main-Bid of that bidder at the
risk of the bidder. If variation is noted between the information contained in the
Electronic Forms™ and the ‘Main-Bid’, the contents of the Electronic Forms™ shall
prevail. Alternatively, the Buyer organization reserves the right to consider the higher
of the two pieces of information (e.g. the higher price) for the purpose of short-listing,
and the lower of the two pieces of information (e.g. the lower price) for the purpose
of payment in case that bidder is an awardee in that tender.
Typically, ‘Pass-Phrase’ of the Bid-Part to be opened during a particular Public Online

Tender Opening Event (TOE) is furnished online by each bidder during the TOE itself,
when demanded by the concerned Tender Opening Officer.
(Optional Text in EBI, depending upon the decision of the Buyer organization):
Additionally, the bidder shall make sure that the Pass-Phrase to decrypt the relevant
Bid-Part is submitted to Buyer Organization Name in a sealed envelope before the
start date and time of the Tender Opening Event (TOE).
OR
Additionally, the bidder shall make sure that the Pass-Phrase to decrypt the relevant
Bid-Part is submitted into the ‘Time Locked Electronic Key Box (EKB)’ after the
corresponding deadline of Bid Submission, and before the commencement of the
Online TOE. The process of submission of this Pass-Phrase in the ‘Time Locked
Electronic Key Box’ is done in a secure manner by first encrypting this Pass-Phrase
with the designated keys provided by the Buyer organization.
There is an additional protection with SSL Encryption during transit from the client-
end computer of a Supplier organization to the e-tendering server/ portal.
Public Online Tender Opening Event (TOE)

ETS offers a unique facility for ‘Public Online Tender Opening Event (TOE)’. Tender
Opening Officers, as well as, authorized representatives of bidders can simultaneously
attend the Public Online Tender Opening Event (TOE) from the comfort of their
offices. Alternatively, one/ two duly authorized representative(s) of bidders (i.e.
Supplier organization) are requested to carry a Laptop with Wireless Internet
Connectivity, if they wish to come to Buyer Organization Name office for the Public
Online TOE.
Every legal requirement for a transparent and secure ‘Public Online Tender Opening
Event (TOE)’, including digital counter-signing of each opened bid by the authorized
TOE Event
(TOE)’, including digital counter-signing of each opened bid by the authorized TOE
officer(s)in the simultaneous online presence of the participating bidders’
representatives, has been implemented on ETS.
As soon as a Bid is decrypted with the corresponding ‘Pass-Phrase’ as submitted

onlineby the bidder himself (during the TOE itself), salient points of the Bids (as
identified by the Buyer organization) are simultaneously made available for
downloading by all participating bidders. The tedium of taking notes during a manual
‘Tender Opening Event’ is therefore replaced with this superior and convenient form
of ‘Public Online Tender Opening Event (TOE)’.
Page 19 of 50
ETS has a unique facility of ‘Online Comparison Chart’ which is dynamically updated as
each online bid is opened. The format of the chart is based on inputs provided by the
Buyer for each Bid-Part of a tender. The information in the Comparison Chart is based
on the data submitted by the Bidders. A detailed Technical and/ or Financial
Comparison Chart enhance Transparency. Detailed instructions are given on relevant
screens.
ETS has a unique facility of a detailed report titled ‘Minutes of Online Tender Opening
Event (TOE)’ covering all important activities of ‘Online Tender Opening Event (TOE)’.
This is available to all participating bidders for ‘Viewing/ Downloading’.
There are many more facilities and features on ETS. For a particular tender, the
screens viewed by a Supplier will depend upon the options selected by the concerned
Buyer.
Other Instructions
For further instructions, the vendor should visit the home-page of the portal
https://www.tcil-india-electronictender.com, and go to the User-Guidance Center

i) Description of service: CWC has about 1600 Hydrological Observation (H.O) sites on rivers in
India. Hydro-meteorological observation is to be carried out at these H.O sites for gauge &
discharge, and sample collection of silt and water quality including other meteorological
parameters. Services required for observation of hydrological and meteorological parameters
viz Gauge & Discharge observation, collection of Water Quality and Silt samples, collection and
recording of raingauge readings at H.O stations mentioned at Chapter 3 “Schedule of
Requirements”.
ii) Background of the Organisation and the Project:

[
Background of Organization- Central Water Commission is a premier Technical Organization

of India in the field of Water Resources and is presently functioning as an attached office of
the Ministry of Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation, Government of
India. The Commission is entrusted with the general responsibilities of initiating, coordinating
and furthering in consultation of the State Governments concerned, schemes for control,
conservation and utilization of water resources throughout the country, for purpose of Flood
Control, Irrigation, Navigation, Drinking Water Supply and Water Power Development.
Project- The Scheme “Development of Water Resources Information System (DWRIS)” is a

Central Sector Scheme of the Ministry of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga
Rejuvenation (MOWR, RD & GR), Govt. of India being implemented by Central Water
Commission (CWC). The rationale of such an ambitious scheme has coherence with the
National Water Policy-2012, which states that “appropriate institutional arrangements for
each river basin should be developed to collect and collate all data on regular basis with
regard to rainfall, river flows, area irrigated by crops and by source, utilizations for various
uses by both surface and ground water and to publish water accounts on ten daily basis every
year for each river basin with appropriate water budgets and water accounts based on the
hydrologic balances”.

proposal for hiring of services for hydrological data observations at H.O stations will help in
collecting daily data of Gauge, Discharge, Silt& Water Quality etc. The data collected from
these H.O stations will act as basic input in developing mathematical models for flood
forecasting, design of water retaining structures, water resources assessment, basin
management resolving inter- state issues etc.
